What eloquence in tliat question of the lovely Christian wifeof a besotted drunkard. " Who has taken away myhusband and put thai man in his place?"No, my sore stricken sister, " He whom thou nowhast is not thy husband." This Is not he to whom thougavest thy young heart with its wealth of love, in itsjoyful trust. His face was bright and manly; his Isbeastly and bloated. His voice was full and kind ;li is is a surly growl, llis step was light and elastic;his is heavy and shuflling. He promised to love andcherish thee, and his presence was a joy ; lie has jfilled thy heart with grief, and thy home with shame,God help thee and thy sons and daughters; especiallythat tender one whom disease hath long aflliclcd, whosepallid face and tearful look of sadness tells of a sorerEioluAui Vf-IKT I'Mt.U.

Examiner.YOUNG MAN.Save that penny pick up that pin let that account be correct to a farthing find out what that bitof ribbon coils before you say " you will take it"pay that half dime your friend handed to you to makechange with in a word, be economical be accurateknow what you aro doing be honest and then be generous, for all vou have or acquire thus belongs to youby every rulo of right, and you may put it to any gooduse. And you will put it to good use if you acquire itjustly and honestly, for you have a foundation, a background which will always keep you above the waves ofevil. It is not parsimonious to be economical. It isnot miserly to save a pin from loss. It is not small toknow the price of articles you arc about to purchase,or to remember the little debt you owe. What if youdo meet Bill Pride, decked out in a much better suitthan yours, the price of which he has not yet learnedfrom his tailor, and he laughs at your faded dress andold-fashioned notions of honesty and right, your daywill come. Tranklin, who from a penny-saving boy,walking thc streets with a roll under his arm, becamen companion for kings, says, " take care of the pennies, and the dollars will lake care of themselves." LaFitte, the celebrated French banker, when leaving thehouse to which he had applied for a-clcrkship, was nottoo proud or careless to pick up a pin. This simplopin laid the foundation of his immense wealth. Thowise banker saw the act, called him back, and gavehim employment, convinced by this seeming smallcircumstance of his ability and honesty. Be just andthen be generous.Yes, bo just always, and then you can always begenerous, Benevolence is a great duly, a heavengiven privilege, by which you not only benefit the object, but feel a sensation of joy to your own soul whichis worth more, far more, than gain. But you may notgive your neighbor's goods. Your own just earningsyou should always share with tho needy ; but generosity can never be measured by the amount yon lavishon a fine dress, or that you spend with your friends toBalisfy the repuirements of vanity and folly. What ifthey do pat you on the shoulder? They would do asmuch to any dog that would servo them. It is theservice not yourself that gels the flattery, or you spendyour money for naught, certainly. Well, let tho girlssay you aro small, rather than spend one dollar youheed for a book. Get the book, if it is a good one; itwill tell you that no girl worth having ever selected aman for a husband for his long lailor or livery stablebill more than for his long ears.CAT AND BAT STORY.TiiE llarcrlttll Hepullican tells n good story. ItBays that it witnessed a cat nursing a kitten and threeyoung rats. The cat had four kittens, and the ownerWiled three of them. A few days after ho found thatthe old cat had supplied the placo of tho kittens withthree young rats about as large as mice."These she would caress and wash and fondlo inthc same manner as she did her own offspring, andapparently knew no difference between thefh. Thusthings went on until wo saw thcin, at the ago of abouttwo months, when Iho rats had. become about halfgrown. The family is yet together and happy in eachother's society ; the mother is doing well as could beexpected, and appears as proud of her own and heradopted young ones as any other cat with a, family.We have ever deemed it possible for the Lion andLamb to lie down together, but until we saw thissight the idea never occurred to our mind that a Mrs.Pussy could so far pull lho wool over her eyes as tofoster and protect a nest of rats, deeming the 111 to benot only kittens, but bone of her bone and flesh ofher flesh.

Upon "one occa- jeion, when lie brought In a bill to Alderman Todd, that 1......gentleman asked l.im ,f he had not charged ratherhigh. Darnel excused himself by saying he had anaged mother to support, in additio to his own family ;and that ho punctually paid his master twenty dollarsevery six months, according to an agreement he hadmade with htm. When the Alderman heard the pai-liculars, his sympathy was excited, and he wrote toIsaac T. Hopper requesting him to examine into thecase, stating his own opinion that Daniel had a legalright to freedom.The wood-sawyer started off with the note with greatalacrity, and delivered it to Friend Hopper, saying, invery animated tones, " Squire Todd thinks I am free!'He was in a state of agitation between hope and fear.When he had told his story, ho was sent home to getreceipts for all the money he had paid his master sincehis arrival in Philadelphia. It waseasy to prove froriithese that he had been a resident in Philadelphia, withhis owner's consent, a much lonpcr time than tho lawrequired to make lilnia free man. When Friend Hop.'per gave him this information, he was overjoyed. Jlecould hardly believe it. Thc tidings seemed too goodto be true.

When Friend Hop.iper was an old man, he often used to remark how wellhe remembered their beaming countenances on that occasion, and their warm expressions of gratitude to God.Soon after this interview, a letter was addressed toPerry Boots, informing him that his slavo was legallyfree, and that he need not expect any more of hiswages. He came to Philadelphia immediately, to answer the letter in person. His first salutation was,"Where can 1 find that uncrateful villain. Dan? Iwill take him homo in ironsFriend Hopper replied, Thou wilt find thyself relieved from such an unpleasant task ; for I con easilyconvince thee that the law sustains thy slave in takinghis freedom."Heading the Jaw did not satisfy him. lie said howould consult a lawyer, and call again. When he returned, he found Daniel waiting to sec him ; and hoimmediately began to upbraid him for being so ungrateful, Daniel replied, " Master Perry, it was notjustice that made me your slave.

Mr. Boots accepted lho invitation,but Friend Hopper excused himself, on account of anengagement that would detain him till after dinner.When he called, he found that they had not risen fromtable, on which wcro the remains of a roasted turkey,a variety of vegetables, and a decanter of wine. FriendHopper smiled when Daniel remarked, "I know Master Perry loves a littlo brandy, but I did not like to getbrandy; sol bought a quart of Mr. Morris' best wine,and thought that would do instead. I never drank anything but water myself."Soon after Daniel Benson became a free man, hegave up sawing wood, and opened it shop for the saleof second-hand clolhirjg.
